What "clique" did you belong to in high school?

[meadowlandsnj]

So, the bottom line is, I was pretty much friends with everyone...the cheerleaders, the jocks, the stoners, the geeks, the over achievers, etc. We had about 300 in our graduating class, and I can honestly say I probably knew everyone by name. I always help plan our class reunions and they are a BLAST...one big party, and everyone gets out and dances with everyone else.

I really wasn't a part of any clique.  I always did my own thing without a group of people, I had a few good friends but never a huge circle of friends.  I didn't really fit in with any of the groups anyway.   We had drama geeks, band geeks, stoners, sport dudes, straight A's and the outcasts.  If I had to catogorize myself right now I'd say I was an outcast, not knowing who's or what mold I fit in.  I was made fun of by the cheerleaders but the stoners used to stick up for me.   
IF anyone is interested go to classmates.com and look up Rutherford, NJ High School class of 1980 to get a glimpse of my HS life.

I was in the mouthy, rebel-with-a-thousand-causes camp and hung out with some of the popular girls.  I was sort of popular, mostly I think for help with homework.  In university I was always the youngest by quite a lot  and mostly studied and got high.  I even studied and wrote papers at parties.

I loved to wear lace collars and pearls. Can't stand lace now. I hung around with the preppies, techers, and stoners. I got along with everyone.

I grew up in "the valley" in So. Calif. I was pretty shy and my grades were ok in high school. I hung out with the smart girls and the bad boys. Somehow it all worked out. My graduating class had 600 students, and I was lucky if I knew 10% of them. Only went to junior college for a year and was mostly alone. I was working fulltime and didn't fit in.

I was part of the band geek crowd and also the smart, good girls in high school (you know, the ones who never dated much so they didn't have the chance to be bad).  I was head twirler but Mr. D, the conductor, had a weird rule that the baton twirlers had to also play an instrument and be in band.  I played clarinet but wasn't good enough for first chair by any means.  Twirlers were lower than low in popularity but I put up with it because I was a fairly decent twirler.  Cheerleaders that I'd known in grade school and junior high wouldn't even say 'hi' anymore.  But I graduated in the top 10% in a class of over 850 students so there were plenty of other people to be friends with. 

Amazing how so many of those "popular" kids haven't amounted to much today.

My best friend, Mary and I were our own clique and we got along with everyone.  I had the leads in the plays, she was the president of Homemakers of America.  We went to every dance within a 30 mile radius---school, town hall dances, church socials---any where they played rock and roll!  (Ohio Buckeye--I belonged to a square dance club in Columbus!).  I worried too much about being "good" and making good grades.   My mother was Executive Director of a large camp and hired many of my teachers as summer counselors, so I had great relationships with the teachers.  Mary and I went to slumber parties with the cheerleaders and were best friends with the "hoods".   Mary and I met in 5th grade and she has been my best friend ever since.   I lost Mary to a brain aneurysm a few years ago and I miss her more than I can say.    Now I'm crying.   I LOVED high school.

looking back, I think my group was the nerds, but we were all such good friends to each other and had such a good time together that we didn't care (or notice, for that matter!). I was a cheerleader, but our squad was such a mix of personalities that most of us barely saw each other outside of school.

The pot smokers.
Not proud of it.
Just being honest.

Great majority of my close friends in high school were the jocks and cheerleaders.  But, I spoke to everybody.  I wasn't "stuck-up".  Maybe that is the reason I won superlative "Friendliest" in middle (jr. high) and high school.

I was a part of the smart, preppy kids clique. Top 10 percent of the class, National Honor Society, clubs up the wazoo, scholarships up the wazoo. We were the goody two shoes group, I guess.  We never dated, drank, did drugs, or partied. I look back now, and realize that we were never really that good of freinds because no one still talks to anyone else in the group. By the time I went to college, I was so socially retarded,, that I never really made any good friends in college either. I absolutely hated college. I was severely depressed throughout those years. It was very sad. A year ago I signed up on classmates.com. I've gotten a few guestbook signings, but the stupid site charges too much to view those postings, so I have no idea was checking in with me!

I'll admit it -- I was a big old NERD!

Still am, according to my husband.

[rookiegirl]

I'm very fortunate that I still keep in touch with my high school friends.  Even though we are spread through out the nation, we still manage to keep in touch through letters and telephone calls.  I have close friends in Korea, London, Italy, Puerto Rico, Georgia, California, New York, Florida, Alabama.

I was in the band group and the good girls-good grades group.  But then came college--I think my major was  .  Then I realized I would have to "grow up" so I could get a job.

For the first 2 years of high school I was in a public school and LOVED it.  I had to so much fun, I make friends easily so I hung around with everyone and was completely boy crazy.  In Sophmore year I ended up getting a D in a class and was so afraid to show my parents that my then boyfriend created another report card for me on the computer and changed my grade.  Unfortunately, he forgot to put the school logo on it and my parents grouded me from the boy and pulled me from public and put me back into Catholic School  . 

My last 2 years I was in an all girls Catholic high school, my graduating class was 24 girls, needless to say we didn't have any cliques!  My parents didn't cure the boy craziness though.  We were affiliated with an all boys Catholic high school.  Pair up both schools and you have horny hormoned teenagers!!!
